Parents’ and children’s involvement in decision-making during hospitalisation

Different reasons are given as to why children and their parents should be involved in discussions and decisions regarding the child’s care. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child formulates the needs of children and young people in terms of human rights. Ethical duties of health professionals include the obligation to enhance their patients’ competence and ability to participate. The concep

Empirical evaluations of regression test selection techniques: a systematic review

Regression testing is the verification that previously functioning software remains after a change. In this paper we report on a systematic review of empirical evaluations of regression test selection techniques, published in major software engineering journals and conferences. Out of 2 923 papers analyzed in this systematic review, we identified 28 papers reporting on empirical comparative evalua

Joseph Beuys : fett och filt : en forskningskritisk essä

Joseph Beuys. Fat and felt. A critical essay. The extremely singular materials fat and felt for use in art, have an entirely dominating role in a long series of Joseph Beuys’ (1921-1986) most important work. They are found both in single works of art as well as in installations and happenings from the beginning of the 1960s and up to the end of the artist’s life. This essay deals with the artist’

Developing the modelling of Swedish prosody in spontaneous dialogue

The main goal of our current research is the development of the Swedish prosody model. In our analysis of discourse and dialogue intonation, we are exploiting model-based resynthesis. By comparing synthesized default and fine-tuned pitch contours for the dialogues under study, we are able to isolate relevant intonation patterns. This analysis of intonation is related to an independent modelling of

Lidar fluorescence measurements of algal growth on electrical insulators

Fluorescence measurements using lidar techniques have been shown to be useful for monitoring of algal growth on e.g. historical monuments. In this experiment similar measurements were performed on electrical insulators to examine the correlation between algal growth and the quality of the insulator, a factor of importance in the high-voltage grid management

Insulin Polymorphism Crystallographic Characterization of Insulin Microcrystals

Popular Abstract in Swedish Diabetes (Diabetes mellitus) eller sockersjuka som den också kallas, är en sjukdom som beror på att kroppens celler inte kan ta upp socker från blodet, vilket leder till hög blodsockerkoncentration. Socker utsöndras även i urinen vilket kroppen försöker kompensera för genom att också öka utsöndringen av vatten. Detta leder till att stora mängder urin bildas samt att manInsulin is a protein needed for the uptake of glucose from the circulating blood. In absence of sufficiently high insulin levels in the body or when the cells have a reduced sensitivity for insulin a disease state referred to as diabetes occurs. Treatment of diabetes generally requires daily injections of exogenous insulin. Many of the pharmaceutical formulations consist of insulin in a crystallin

Rate of heat release experiments with living materials

Results from rate of heat release (RHR) experiments with lining materials are presented. A total of 13 materials including both cellulosic and synthetic materials were tested. In small scale RHR was measured using a modified Ohio State University (OSU) RHR apparatus. In intermediate/large scale RHR measurements were carried out in a room-corner configuration with the tested material mounted on the
